Good compromise for road gravel

These tires seem to work well on gravel and pavement. I am using tubes and run 45psi in back and 40 in front. No flats so far and with 35s. Tires seem to hold speed on pavement and the side knobs and file tread seem to handle predictably on gravel. So far I am happy with these tires.

they fit my Trek Domaine, very nicely. Had to deflate the tire and open the breaks making room for these babies.

They ran smooth and fast, could not tell they were for back roads.. I do like the look of the threads too.

I use them with tubes and no punctures after multiple gravel rides and a 67 mile gravel race. Highly satisfied thus far.

My 1st foray into 700x35mm for the CX Gravel bike, up from 28mm. Ive got a couple hundred miles on them so far - i think i need to run a higher pressure than what was suggested to me - they feel a little squishy on the bumps. I realize thats likely what they are intended to do, i maybe just am not used to the firmer skinnier tires i rode last year. So far a solid B

Good gravel tires

Got the SK Gravel King 32mm tires for gravel riding and am very pleased. They ride great and offer good traction at around 320 grams each. No problems with flats and durability - good tire for the money.

Put these on my bike for a gravel ride and they did the job. Relatively easy to take on and off. Able to roll well on the tarmac when the gravel runs out.

Great tire for the red clay, cinder and lighter gravel in Georgia. Handled golf ball sized stuff well, too. Doesn't shed mud well so if it's wet where you are, look elsewhere.

I love these tires! Very grippy on gravel and even tried it in single track! Handled really well and didn�t seem to give any rolling resistance issues! Would recommend!

Review by Tarwheel

Runs narrow, flat profile

I bought a set of the Gravel King 32s based on my excellent experience with the GK 28s. However, they are very different tires and I am disappointed with the 32s. The 28s run wider than most tires in that size, about 29 mm on Open Pro rims and 30 mm on Velocity Dyads. However, the 32s barely measure 32 mm on Dyads, which are wide rims. They also have a much more aggressive tread and flatter profile compared to the 28s, making less than ideal for cornering and riding on pavement. I would not buy these tires again. Clement LAS 33s or Ritchey Crossmax Pro are better alternatives for a wider tire with moderate tread. That said, the GK 32s are a great value at $27, particularly if you don't plan to ride on the road and corner a lot.

Surprising good for dirt-sand-fine gravel

I'm running this on the rear on the bike trails and enjoying the traction and ride. The tire seems to glide smoothly over trail and likes about 70-75 psi for my average weight. Does fine on the pavement too, but most of my riding is on the trails. Ran a 32mm Clement X'plor 120 tpi when the ground was softer, but the Gravel King gives superior traction when it gets hard, dry and dusty.

Thought the small tread blocks would wear fast but not so - they've held up, roll quietly, and don't seem to mind the patches of deeper gravel.

Not so good for the front - the tire has a flat profile which puts a lot of rubber on the ground, but I like a rounded profile to bank into the corners easily. It does grip decently but is not as fun to toss into a turn.

Think you need wider rims (I use 19mm internal) to get the most out of it.

Can't believe the 50's actually fit on an old ck bike!

The 50's have enough clearance to run them as a FRONT only on my old cantilever CX bike. Crazy. The wheel is a Mavic Ksyrium with a tube. So if you're curious...they fit. With a little room to spare.

After several friends HIGHLY recommending these I thought id give them a try.

NEVER again!

First, they are a pain in the ass to mount tubeless

Second, they are slower than molasses!

two rides in and I will be pulling them off, cleaning them up, and selling them

what a waste

Needed a tire to run through the winter on these debris filled PA roads. Grip never stops with these and my confidence at speed is back! Don't roll too much slower than my race slicks. I'll be running them every winter.

I got these for my road bike after tearing a hole in my sidewall. These tires held up great off and on the road. I got them in their thinnest size and immediately felt the difference between my bald road tires and these which earn their name. As a side note these unfortunately got stolen after a few weeks of use so I can't speak to their longevity.
